The doctor will assist you in the diagnosis and administer medical treatment when necessary, or refer you to a speech and language therapist when sound therapy is required; because speech and language therapists apply voice therapy techniques to prevent, improve and prevent some voice diseases.

It is a program that includes exercises to ensure sound quality. It is a preventive approach as part of a rehabilitation program to reduce or eliminate environmental effects and behaviors that may harm the sound, as well as to provide the necessary use and care for the sound to remain healthy. Therapy techniques vary according to the disease and its symptoms.
